Kris Abrams-Draine

Broncos selected Missouri CB Kris Abrams-Draine with the No. 145 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

In high school Abrams-Draine (5’113/179) started as a freshman on the varsity basketball team and played QB and WR in addition to cornerback on the gridiron. A three-star prospect, the Mobile, AL product was one of the first signings for new HC Eli Drinkwitz and spent his first offseason at wide receiver before switching sides a few games into his pandemic-shortened freshman year. While the lockdown Missouri cornerback ran a strong 4.44s 40-yard dash, his 4.41s shuttle and 7.15s three-cone were very disappointing. A feisty, highly-productive outside corner with oily hips and an aggressive demeanor, Abrams-Draine has proved himself as a formidable adversary who allowed a 47-percent catch rate in the hyper-competitive SEC. Less than ideal size is going to be a detriment, but he could be a key defensive cog at the NFL level if he can become proficient in a slot role.
